Hi Riccardo,

this will involve quite a bit of programming: see fix_mesh_surface_stress.h/cpp for an example how to introduce new properties to the wall. You'd have to create a similar class and add a per-element temperature. This you'd have to use in a modified version of fix wall/gran which uses the per-element temperature in place of one global temperature

Best wishes and happy coding
